HUL stands for Hindustan Unilever Limited, a consumer products firm. It is a subsidiary of the British business Unilever. Foods, drinks, cleaning agents, personal care items, water purifiers, and other fast-moving consumer goods are among its offerings.

In June 2007, the firm was renamed Hindustan Unilever Limited. Hindustan Unilever has 44 product brands in 14 categories in its portfolio as of 2019.

The integration of GSK's 3,800 workers, on the other hand, remained unknown, since HUL indicated that there was no stipulation in the purchase allowing for staff retention. After completing all legal formalities, HUL concluded its merger with GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare (GSKCH India) in April 2020.
